Essential facts about tyre pressure

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tires

In this video, we learn many useful things about tyre pressure. For example: pressure does not remain constant; a tyre loses an average of 0.08 bar per month, so potentially a tyre can lose 40% of its air volume due to temperature variation, wheel rotation, and road stresses. Driving with under-inflated tyres poses safety risks, as it increases braking distances, makes control more difficult in aquaplaning, and can trigger oversteer and understeer; additionally, it consumes more fuel, emits more CO2, and reduces tyre lifespan. Over-inflation can also be harmful, as it makes impacts feel harsher, wears the tread more quickly, and reduces grip. Tyres should always be checked when cold, and should be inspected at least a couple of times a year with calibrated professional tools.
